Using the periodic table to choose the element that matches each description include the following below:

Halogen: iodine

Group IIA: magnesium

Nonreactive: argon

Alkali metal: potassium.

<h3>What is a Periodic table?</h3>

This contains elements which are arranged according to the order of their atomic number in a tabular form. There are 18 groups which are the vertical columns present while there are 8 periods which are the horizontal rows present in the periodic table.

Example of an alkali metal is potassium while the non reactive ones include argon, neon etc. Examples of halogens include chlorine, iodine etc. are the ones which have seven electrons in their outer electron shells thereby just requiring one electron to achieve to obtain a stable octet configuration.

These are therefore the elements which match the descriptions provided in this case and is the most appropriate choice.

Identify what kind of ligand (weak or strong), what kind of wavelength (long or short), what kind of spin (high spin or low spin

anzhelika [568]

To find - Identify what kind of ligand (weak or strong), what kind

of wavelength (long or short), what kind of spin (high spin or

low spin) and whether it is paramagnetic or diamagnetic for

the following complexes.

1. [Mn(CN)6]4-

2. [Fe(OH)(H2O)5]2

3. [CrCl4Br2]3-

Step - by - Step Explanation -

[Mn(CN)⁶]⁴⁻ :

Ligand - Strong

Wavelength - Short

Spin - Low spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 1 ∴ paramagnetic.

[Fe(OH)(H₂O)₅]²⁺ :

Ligand - Weak ( both OH⁻ and H₂O )

Wavelength - Long

Spin - High spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 5 ∴ paramagnetic.

[CrCl₄Br₂]³⁻ :

Ligand - Weak ( both Br⁻ and Cl⁻ )

Wavelength - Long

Spin - High spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 3 ∴ paramagnetic.

Why won’t sugar and Citric acid leave a sediment in salad dressing??

satela [25.4K]

Because it contains vinegar because it does not form layers when mixed with other liquids. Sugar or citric acid because they don't leave sediment.

How many moles are in 64 grams of methane, CH4? A. 4 B. 32 C. 64 D. 13

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

A. 4.

Explanation:

We can use the relation:

no. of moles (n) = mass/molar mass.

mass = 64.0 g, molar mass = 16.0 g/mol.

∴ no. of moles (n) = mass/molar mass = (64.0 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 4 mol.

A chemistry graduate student is given 500. mL of a 0.20 M chloroacetic acid (HCH2ClCO2) solution. Chloroacetic acid is a weak ac

zhenek [66]

Answer:

12 g of choloracetic acid

Explanation:

The buffer equilibrium is:

HCH₂ClCO₂ ⇄ CH₂ClCO₂⁻ + H⁺

pka= -log ka =

Ka: 1,3x10⁻³ = [CH₂ClCO₂⁻] [H⁺] / [HCH₂ClCO₂]

By Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

3,01 = 2,89 + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

1,318 = [A⁻] / [HA]

As molar concentration of chloroacetic acid (HA) is 0,20M

[A⁻] = 0,26 mol/L

The volume is 500 mL ≡ 0,5 L

0,26mol/L × 0,5 L = 0,13 moles of chloroacetic acid. In grams:

0,13 mol × (94,5g / 1mol) = 12 g of choloracetic acid

I hope it helps!
